Hi everyone,

My name is Joe, and I am taking a Trinity Cert with Oxford TEFL in May. I am getting very excited about the course, but I had a few questions I wanted answered before I leave. I know that it is hard for Non-EU Passport holders to get jobs in Europe, but I was wondering where the best places in the world were for Americans to work (i.e.- easier visa processes). Any advice would be great. I have been lurking these forums for a year or so now and they were a huge influence in me choosing a Trinity Cert over anything else.

Thanks,

Joe

What kind of degree do you have?

What sort of teaching interests you? Doesn't interest you?

[spiral78]

Latin America, for one.

The only region that is generally off-limits, as you're already aware, is Europe. Once you rule that out ( ), it depends on your qualifications, as Glenski mentioned, and then simply on where you want to go.

thanks for the replies, and i apologize for not including more information.

I have a BA in History/ Political Science Minor and I am deeply interested in Latin American and Western History. Thanks for your help.

Try Amideast as a starter. They are American friendly.

Bar my strong denial here in Hanoi Vietnam of ever being anything even slightly related to an American......

They are very welcome here.

I know it's in the EU, but I think you'll find that quite a lot of Polish schools prefer North Americans (erm, should that be north Americans?). Russian schools vary, as some of them think that it's a great tradition to speak with a Home Counties (southern English) accent and get shirty about northern English, Yankees, etc etc.

America.
